Talks between India and Sri Lanka on fishing in the Palk Bay and Palk Strait, which were to be held in Chennai on March 5, have been postponed indefinitely , the Director General of Fisheries, Nimal Hettiarachchi, told Indian media yesterday.

"Fisheries Minister Dilip Wedaarachchi had to seek postponement because the government is busy implementing its post-Presidential election 100-day program and with getting the European Union's ban on buying fish from Lanka lifted," Hettiarachchi was quoted as telling the Indian Express newspaper.
